2256z - Speech/talk format. SIO 444. ~S8 peaks via KiwiSDR 2 and 148' LoG. Static crashing but a decent to good copy.
2307z - Holiday music. SIO 544+. Noted an over S9+20 peak via Airspy HF+D and 31' vertical.

Thanks for the broadcast! :)

Perhaps a repeat of the speech from ~40 minutes ago? Seems like there might be some subtle differences.
TX was ~50 Hertz low until 2254 or so, when a sudden jump put it closer to 6920. SINPO 55555 on an SDR in New England.
